They have quiet kind?
Ive tried their subsonic and they are still quite loud, do they have a more quieter one?
Therefore instead ive been using powder less.  They dont cycle the action though so i need to do it manually.
Let me know what you find.  If there is quiet kind that still cycles the action i would like to try them out as well

I haven't seen CCI quiet around but  Aguila Super Colibri are really quiet. Out of a 16" barrel it sounds quieter then my air rifles. They sell them in Young Guns and Windward Gun Shop.

Second the cci quiet out of a heavy barrel in my heavy barrel .22 it's like a air gun
If I'm not mistake the colibri is fired by primer only and may not be the best for long barrel or semi auto cycle

Yeah ive been running the Aguila Super Colibri, thats what i meant by powderless.  And in my 10/22 and marlin 795 it doesnt cycle the action.  Need to do it manually.
If any of you find these CCI quiets let me know, now im really curious about them.
Maybe we can try contact carter and see what he can do if no one on island has them

I've been shooting a bunch of 22 lr pistols lately and have been surprised that some of the 22 lr ammo that I've shot is quite loud. 

You know what would be awesome?  If suppressors were legal here!   :shaka:

If it were ever allowed, I'd be filling out a Form 4 the same day it's legalized.

Yeah, super colibris are quiet...the closest to CCI's Quiet22 is CCI CB Long, about 700 sumthin fps with a report sligjtly louder than a strong air rifle

Alright, well if I can't find the CCI's that sounds like the way to go..Will they stop a rooster with anything other then a head shot? ;D

I shot a egret once with the powderless. Bad idea unless its a head shot. Took more then one from me. I have put down rats with the powderless though. If anything just use regular .22 ammo and take only 1 shot. 22 is not very loud, and unless your neighbours are expecting it probably won't think much of 1 shot. I've shot regular .22 in my backyard with no visits. Your risk to take though.

Yeah, super colobri+chicken = chasing it around trying to finish it off.  I'd get a good Benjamin for urban pest control.  A little more guarantee, and if PD arrives, less legal problems.

My 80s Benjamin .22 still did the job nicely while I was living in the big island.  8 to 10 pumps and loud pop= food for the wild dogs.
